The most powerful anti-aging tool available

The sun’s rays are the number one cause of not only skin cancer, but skin aging. Sun exposure causes 80% of skin aging.

There are three types of rays from the sun that damage your skin:

UVA rays that age your skin

UVB rays that burn your skin

and Infrared Rays that are experienced as heat and penetrate your skin more deeply than UVA or UVB rays. They cause the most severe skin aging.

You can get sunburned year-round and even on cloudy days because UVA rays are always present. UVA rays can penetrate windows and you DO experience sun damage in your car. This is why the left (or driver’s side) side of your face is oftentimes more damaged or wrinkled than the right side.

The number one thing you can do to prevent sun damage is to avoid the sun, wear protective clothing, and always have a hat handy.

What to look for in a Sunscreen?

SPF: or Sun Protection Factor

You want an SPF of 30, but much higher than 30 doesn’t mean the sunscreen is substantially better.
